That goat won't digest in the snake's system thereby leading to the ultimate demise of the snake
your statement shows u had F9 in biology. Snakes have one of the strongest digestive enzymes or juices in the world even strong enough to digest bones,hair,hooves,teeth etc. All the python needs is to the bath in the warmth of the sun to enable it adjust it's body temperature to that of it's environment to digest it's food. It takes a long time though and that python may not eat for the next one month or even more than until it digests it's food.

You obviously are not a person of science. By the end of a week or two, even the teeth of the goat would have been digested by the snake. The stomach has extra powerful digestive enzymes. For it to be swallowed whole should tell you that the animal is capable of handling it's digestion.

Snakes don't have fixed jaws, the jaws move independent of each other. They eat something far bigger than their head.

They can unhinge their jaws, making them open their mouths wider.

The acid inside the snakes stomach will digest the goat including its bones giving the snake up to 2months of food supply.

Goodluck, I blame u for all the horrible things that happen in Nigeria. It is ur fault that pythons can now swallow goats with ease. U were suppose to kill all the pythons during ur administration but u didn't . grin

A snake's head contains few bones and lots of joints making it possible to move one side independently.

That's not true. The goat will totally digest in a couple of days - even it's bones. Everything.
There's a very powerful chemical substance in snakes that hasten digestion.

The snake can also stay for up to a year without eating after this.

Snake's jaws are detachable and their skin elastic. Hence, they can swallow preys seemingly larger and bigger than themselves.
